My goodness, yesterday was exhaaaaaauuuuusting. 8 hours cold physical labor interspersed with cold standing around and talking to relatives. Which is why I went to bed almost immediately after getting home and walking the dog (at 8pm! Which is exactly 12 hours after I walked the dog right before leaving home) and now am all bright and chipper early in the morning. And only slightly guilty for falling behind in my review schedule.

This is such a lovely light movie that is the perfect refreshing way to start a day. I promise it will make you smile!

I wish uncle was better as a person so Pari didn’t feel like she had to solve everything. Although of course I love it that she is counting on SRK to fix it all.
